Step 2.5 - Disconnect from the Internet(Windows 10 only) I always recommend you download the latest version of DDU, it gets updated quite regularly to keep up with the changes made to GPU drivers and Windows. Note: With some computers you may have to download your GPU/Audio drivers from the OEMs website (HP, Dell, Lenovo etc.) - some GPUs may have custom hardware IDs that only officially work with the OEM specific drivers however this isn't common.Īfter you've downloaded your GPU drivers we can now go ahead and download DDU, I recommend you download DDU from Wagnard's official site. Make sure you select the right options such as language, OS version and architecture etc. Here are the official download links for NVIDIA, AMD (ATI) and Intel drivers.

Step 1 - Have your GPU/Audio drivers ready (but do not run them yet)īefore we go ahead and use DDU to remove our GPU drivers I highly recommend beforehand you head to your GPU manufacturers website and download the appropriate drivers for your GPU and OS configuration (I recommend you use the latest drivers available, however you can use older drivers if you want) By using DDU you can remove these leftovers and solve many common issues related with GPU drivers.

Over time these leftover files can cause compatibility issues, such as drivers failing to install, reducing performance or system crashes/freezes. It should also be noted any settings or profiles you've created in your GPU control panel will be removed - you may need to re-enable settings like SLI, Crossfire, tweak colour settings, refresh rates etc.Ī: Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a driver removal tool that can help you completely remove AMD (ATI), NVIDIA and Intel graphics drivers, Realtek audio driver from your system, without leaving leftovers behind (such as registry keys, folders, files, driver store).
